The Sacramento Women's Chorus will be presenting our annual spring concert next Friday, April 24th at 7:30pm.
The location we've rented for the event is the First Christian Church at 3901 Folsom Blvd, Sacramento.
This year's theme is "Spring into Song" and we will be presenting various types of music which represent the different aspects of our mission statement.
One of our guest performers, Irina Rivkin, is an Outmusic Awards Recipient, top-10 winner in the Indiegrrl Songwriting Contest, & founder of Rose Street House of Music, her compelling, powerful songs blend elements of folk & world music, with an all-original sound influenced by her Russian heritage. Irina layers her poetic lyrics with rich textured harmonies, swirling with vocal percussive beats, all created live, on-the-spot, using her loop station instrument.
Our other guest performer, Courtney Parks was born in a trunk at the Princess Theatre in Polkatella, Idaho. She was reared in Rangoon and
is not currently a member of The Actors Studio.
Actually, Courtney was raised in Anchorage, Alaska, where she fell in love with Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler and Musical Theatre. She has played Dolly Levi in “Hello, Dolly!", Julie Jordan in “Carousel", Sarah Brown in “Guys and Dolls” and Claire in “Personals".
She has directed shows including Noises Off, A Steetcar Named Desire, Sappho In Love and most recently An Evening Of Durang. She is now dedicated to the production company she started with her wife, Friends of Dorothy Productions. They are getting ready to produce a brand
new musical in Sacramento, “The Green Room"!!
